I should make it clear that the glue comes off with the fret and does not leave
any residue. I wouldnt use hide glue or anything like that. Cheap glue.

I'm sorry, I'm not sure that I made it clear that I use a small snippet
of fret gut for tastini (it seemed self-evident to me but apparently
other players use different materials).

Very good performance, too. Thanks!

Hi folks,
I just glued (actually "loktited") a tastino under two courses of my
soprano lute in d. And now I have wonderful G# and C# in the 5th and 4th
courses, 1st fret. And that is great. Tastini strongly recommended!

lst, as I understand the advocates of
'tastini', their advantage is that one can have diatonic AND chromatic
intervals at the same fret position by using these micro frets.

t out, the use of a full fret is not the same as G was
discussing in the context of 'tastini' and on a largish instrument one might
understand using two full first frets. However, as I understand the case made

Precisely. Galilei was advocating the use of equal temperament and disparaging
lutenists who used tastini to avoid "some of the sharpness from the thirds and
major tenths," using typical 16th-century invective. A
No Daniel, it's not just G I'm afraid but on the basis of historical evidence,

What I do:

Dear All:
I've made tastini and body frets using the small wooden cooking skewers
available in most grocery stores. Split lengthwise, they can then be cut to
the proper length, and are easily sanded and glued (or taped). And very
cheap at several dozen to a package.
Cheers,
Jim

For those of you who are not "well tempered", how do most people afix
their tastini to their Ren lutes? I have been using a piece of cut
scotch tape which holds a piece of fret gut in place. Over time however
the tape begins to come loose and I start to get buzzing from the 3rd
course.
Thanks for the tastino tips!
